Summary
The hot mic incident was just the beginning.
Now the internet watches in real-time as Ilya’s Spotify playlist gets leaked (with NOTES), Shane attempts subtlety (narrator: he fails), they bicker about boy bands on late night TV, someone admits to having a ring for six months ON TWITTER, and approximately 20 different social media platforms collectively lose their goddamn minds.
Featuring: journalists having breakdowns, Reddit threads that require moderator intervention, TikTok compilations with 1.2M views, brand partnerships from Skittles, a plague of engagement speculation, and two hockey players who cannot stop being chaotic disasters on main.
The fandom was writing fic about them. Turns out reality is messier, queerer, and somehow MORE unhinged.
[or social media reacts to the week following the Hot Mic Incident™, told entirely through tweets, Reddit posts, Instagram stories, podcast transcripts, and the world’s most romantic Spotify playlist]

The MILF Theory (And Why the Internet Got It Wrong) by pucksandpower

Summary
The internet has decided that Ilya Rozanov is absolutely, definitely, 100% banging a Hollander.
They’ve got photo evidence. Multiple sightings. Instagram stories from the same café. The man stayed OVERNIGHT at the Hollander residence.
It’s the most legendary power move in NHL history: seduce your rival’s hot mom to assert dominance. There’s just one tiny problem with this theory. Ilya’s fucking a Hollander, all right. Just … not that one.
Or in which Ilya’s boyfriend's mother keeps adopting him, the internet keeps assuming the worst, and Shane Hollander is having the worst month of his entire life. At least until he does something that breaks hockey forever.

Silly Little Lie by lillygoeson

Summary
Against every instinct that had guided Shane his entire life—the instinct to be careful, to be reasonable, to not rock the boat—he leaned into the moment.
“Well,” he said lightly, the words tasting strange and powerful on his tongue, “it’s nice to have a regular man like that.”
The phrase echoed something Rozanov had once said about women, casual and dismissive back then.
Now, it landed like a match.
Shane watched the exact second it ignited.
Or, Shane tells a small, stupid lie because he’s tired of being boring—and accidentally finds out just how much Ilya Rozanov cares.

Summary
"How do you know you're talking to an extroverted engineer? He looks at your shoes when he's talking to you."
Adopt their costumes and pageantry. Form yourself into something quaint but harmless. With his scruff and plaid and social awkwardness and lack of eye contact, Will Graham is, for the first time in his life, normal.
The FBI agents and psychologists knocking on his doorstep won't change that.
AU: Instead of going into law enforcement, Will decides to major in computer science in college instead. Partially inspired by Mr. Robot (only by premise - there is no Mr. Robot plotline).

Bookmarker's Notes
Chapter 10
Chapter 1-10 Reread (31/1/2022):
Intricate world building around Will's tech profession and his alternate environment. Many deep concepts and themes are presented in an engaging way within the story, allowing readers to learn and savour new information throughout each chapter. I especially like how obsessive Hannibal's thoughts are towards Will. I always enjoy a well-constructed Hannibal's POV, which is an important criteria for immersion for me.
To be reread again as the fic was read distractedly over a much longer period of several days with many stops and spurts (due to shorter attention span these days and random shifting of focus).
Chapter 11 (21/10/2024): Read on the MRT. Wow!!! 🪄✨️
